Metal Throne Humanity is no longer expected. (ALPHA 1.1)

The "Drone Wars" Legacy

Jake Jackson was 10 years old when the automation uprising claimed his family. What began as a mandatory AI upgrade for every device—from microwaves to transport networks—ended in the total displacement of humanity.

Now a "technological assassin" for the resistance, Jake infiltrates the high-security fuel core of the machine network. His objective: plant the detonators and escape before the industrial automation resets the world.

Solo Dev Philosophy

A project by @scott_grocott

Metal Throne is built on a "Web-First to Native" pipeline. The goal is to develop the full logic and asset library within web-based engines (A-Frame, Three.js, Babylon.js) before a final compilation into Godot.

AI Production Hub

The project utilizes BuggyWhip v0.1.2: a custom AI agent orchestration system. By routing tasks between local LLMs (Llama-3/Mistral) and cloud-based models, development maintains total privacy without sacrificing architectural depth.
